It's so good. Why? What happened? After a series of consecutive bad albums, what went right this time?

idk how anyone could ever doubt mother

• She's back at home with Warner

• She's working with less yes men

• There was a purpose and need for this album (ie her health scare)

• She feels alive and artistic again

• If this was her last album, it's a perfect amalgamation of all of her eras

It's a perfect victory lap for the Queen, no matter sales or BYL or any of that. She showed you can still make meaningful art and tell the story of the artist, their roots and where they've came up from

She called up Sabrina for a hit. Simple.

Only a very limited number of people still pay attention to her and the downvote brigade on this site won't change that. She is even more of a niche act than Charli at this point.

The tour gross from Celebration tour and crowds say otherwise, the new pop landscape says otherwise as they constantly reference her. Why are you lying on her name lmao?

She came out with AOTY at 67 years old. That's what happened.

She blazed the trail for future female artists. That's what happened.

Wow you are such a genius!!!!! In that case could you explain to me why Gaga is 1 place higher than Katy Perry on Spotify Top Daily Artist Global, are Gaga and Katy boatmates plssssss..... I need your help, thank you master 🥺🥺🥺

Interscope had no clue what to do with her and that was most prominent with MDNA & Rebel Heart. They were putting her in writing camps when everyone always knew that she works with better with 1 or 2 main collaborators.

If Rebel Heart was mostly Diplo/Mike Dean it would have probably been a more cohesive album. Same goes for MDNA.

Can't wait for her to win AOTY at the Grammys!

dated music and approach.

the dancefloor is dead.

singer-songwriter/rock music/country is in.

Do you think who Madonna should have called to have a bigger hit then, Britney or Xtina?

This again? really?

Questionable

Terrible AI music. That's what happened.

I find it funny how people just read the title and not the rest of the post

You, liddos and delusional Madonna haters in general for the past 3 months:

It's crash out after crash out.

Here's some actual facts:

• Music, Fashion, Film debuted at No. 3 on the US Billboard 200 with 78,000 total units (57,000 pure sales and 21,000 streaming units).

• Confessions II debuted at No. 1 on the US Billboard 200 with 134,000 total units (114,000 pure sales and 20,000 equivalent streaming/track units).

Thanks for comparing a veteran female artists with a 45 year career against one of the hit girls of the moment, I guess.

Yo since you are an expert on music, I need you to help explain this to me, are Gaga and Katy Perry boatmates, because on Spotify Top Daily Artist Global, Gaga is #28, only 1 spot higher than Katy at #29?!!!

She sat down with the president of Warner Records and said 'I wanna make history' - and that's what this is.

I think everything she lived in the past 3 or 4 years (her brother's death, her stepmother's, her near-death experience, tensions with her exes and kids) made her think a lot about her priorities and her life and the ego boost from Rio's record gave her a drive to show she's still a genius

Mess… not even ATRL is promoting her

She heard the conversation where the teacher said let's replace the first letter of our name with letter g to a kid named f*g and the the rest is history.
